Tige Ultre 25ZX
The Tigé Ultré 25ZX is the largest, most luxurious surf and wake boat Tigé has ever built. At 25’5” with over 5,000 lbs of ballast, it delivers towering surf waves and pro-level wakeboarding performance. With the TAPS 3T system, GO Surf profiles, and touchscreen control via the Smart2 Wheel and CLEAR dash, the 25ZX is engineered for easy, elite-level riding. Featuring a power tower, CoolTouch Ultré interior, and seating for 19, this flagship is ideal for big crews who want unmatched size, tech, and surf power.
The Tigé Ultré 25ZX is the largest and most advanced boat Tigé has ever built — a true flagship in every sense. Released in 2024 as the top-tier model of the new Ultré line, the 25ZX combines monumental surf performance, elite luxury, and tech-forward design into one 25-foot package.
With bold styling, the most refined interior Tigé has ever produced, and over 5,000 lbs of available ballast, the Ultré 25ZX squarely targets premium buyers cross-shopping the G25 Paragon, Ri265, X26, and M242 — and it competes head-on.
As a 30+ year inboard boat expert, I’ll put it this way: If you want next-level wakesurfing, big-water ride quality, and an ultra-lux interior, the Ultré 25ZX belongs at the very top of your list.
